2018 Kidney Walk
Kidney Walk is the nation's largest event to raise awareness of kidney disease and raise funds to support lifesaving programs for patients, their families, and those at risk. Because funding builds the future, it helps build a world where kidney disease is caught "early" and treated before it causes significant damage. It builds a world where people don't have to get a dialysis treatment to stay alive. It builds a world with no wait list for people seeking a kidney. Be a part of a community of 85,000 individuals at more than 100 Kidney Walks who share a determination to end kidney disease.
Join us at Atlantic Station on May 19, 2018. For more information contact Cara McKinney at cara.mckinney@kidney.org or Krista Dasher at krista.dasher@kidney.org.
